I am sorry this run has started off so badly for my favorite character and us the fans, and the creative people involved.
There is so much that demands patience... on every level.
It's honestly like someone (and many more ) was/were forced to learn a new language on the first day of their job. And that happens... often.
It is unfortunate for fans of a comic that is published once a month, who are avid fans, to be put through that process. It's also unfortunate for the creative talent to go through our reaction.
I am personally extremely judgmental of this run, and should keep that judgment mostly to myself (something I rarely do).
I am seeing the proper reaction from the creative team, and the appropriate atonement through future corrections. Donna/amazons mass murderer(s)? Well we got our "mea culpa" (?).
This month (#41) we get the mea culpa on not understanding anything about Wonder Woman's powers.
Wonder Woman is just not using them. The god of war has obviously not been using any powers (other than wielding swords, who can't do that ... if you have them?).
Flying at moderate speeds seems to be the only "super" power she has left.
Now we have her falling to a "supposed" spray of mace (godly gas?)… the Woman, god (and "now girl?") who could resist Doomsday's spores/gas?
You would first need a respectful break in sci-fi logic for this to be explainable.
This will also have to be explained in another "mea culpa" issue in the future.
And we need a new "mea culpa" issue on the "new" outfit. I know its coming.
A massive "V" in the crotch (as depicted in WW#41) is horrendous to this fan who loves this character.
Not to mention the garish mess the costume is, but I have to wonder about that fantastically rude V? Was this really on purpose?
I have always preferred the human body to be what it is … flesh does not offend me. Symbols… well we are talking about something else altogether.
I am sure another "mea culpa" issue is coming...
